Examining the Book "Capital Ideas" within the Modern Economy.
This paper assesses the book Capital Ideas: The Improbable Origins of Modern Wall Street by Peter L. Bernstein. This book presents the perspective that the modern theories corresponding to business have fundamentally altered the economic system, both in terms of the economic system itself and the strategies that are used to assess that system. This paper investigates the theories that Bernstein provides to the reader in terms of those that first worked to create a new economic strategy, and how these ideas have impacted the modern economic system. This paper also investigates how economic theories can impact the student working in modern business theory. 8-pages, bibliography lists 1 source.
